𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : Hampshire vs Essex 𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : May 30,Friday 𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 23:30 PM IST 𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : The Rose Bowl, Southampton, United Kingdom, United Kingdom 𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : Vitality T20 Blast, 2025 Hampshire and Essex faced each other twice last season, and each side managed to grab a win. England vs West Indies TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. HAM vs ESS Match Prediction & Analysis Hampshire take on Essex in Match 8 of the 2025 T20 Blast at Southampton. Both sides are coming off a tough run last season in the South Group, so they’ll be hungry to kick things off on a better note this time. The matchup looks pretty solid on paper, so there’s a good chance we’re in for a close, entertaining game. TEAMS PREVIEW Hampshire Preview Hampshire had a tough run in the 2024 T20 Blast, managing just four wins from 14 matches and finishing seventh. They’ll be eager to turn that around this season, and starting with a win would go a long way in setting the tone. To make that happen, the batters need to bring more to the table. Toby Albert will be in focus again after finishing among their top scorers last season. Another name to keep an eye on is captain Ben Brown, who’s been in decent form in the county championship. They’ve added some fresh talent to the squad, too. Dewald Brevis, the exciting young South African batter, has joined the side and could give the lineup some real punch. He stood out in the IPL recently, scoring 225 runs in six matches for CSK, with a strike rate of 180 and an average of 37.50. Also joining the squad is 19-year-old Lhuan-dre Pretorius, another promising player from South Africa. Essex Preview Essex put together a respectable season last year, coming away with seven wins and six losses from their 14 matches. With the 2024 core still intact, they look well-placed to push for a spot in the knockouts this time around. Michael Pepper will once again be at the heart of their batting. He was among the most consistent performers last season, piling up 535 runs in 13 innings. His average of 44.58 and blistering strike rate of 194 made him one of the toughest batters to contain. At the top, Essex have the seasoned Dean Elgar and Adam Rossington, both of whom delivered over 300 runs last season and gave the team strong starts more often than not. Charlie Allison and Paul Walter are likely to be steadying influences in the middle order, known for their measured, tactical approach to building an innings. In the bowling department, Paul Walter will again shoulder a lot of responsibility alongside Matt Critchley. The duo took a combined 31 wickets in the 2024 T20 Blast and will be central to Essex’s attack. Adding to that, they’ve got Mohammad Amir in the mix now. The experienced Pakistani left-armer knows how to get results in English conditions and could be a real difference-maker this season. Weather Conditions The Rose Bowl in Southampton offers a true pitch with good carry for pacers early on and consistent bounce throughout. Batters can trust the surface once set, but timing is important due to its slightly larger boundaries. Spin can play a role as the game progresses. Dew often comes into play in night matches, making chasing a preferred option under lights. Expect a balanced contest between bat and ball. The weather in Southampton is expected to be cloudy and pleasant, but there’s very little chance of rain, so we should get a full match. HAM vs ESS Pitch Report The average score batting first in the Rose Bowl in domestic T20s is 162. The highest total posted at the venue is Hampshire’s 221-3 versus Kent in the T20 Blast 2022. Aiming for something in the 180-190 range would give either side a decent shot at defending. Toss: To Bowl Chasing tends to work better in Southampton. In last year’s T20 Blast, teams batting second won four out of seven matches at this venue.

England vs West Indies, ENG vs WI 2025, Today Match Prediction

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : England vs West Indies𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : May 29,Thursday𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 17:30 PM IST 𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Edgbaston, Birmingham, Northern Ireland, United Kingdom 𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : 1st ODI, 2025 A new era begins for England in white ball cricket and the only way is up! England vs West Indies TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. ENG vs WI Match Prediction & Analysis After England made easy work of their opening men’s international of the summer, a Test match victory over Zimbabwe by an innings, attentions turn to white ball cricket with the start of their three-match ODI series against West Indies at Edgbaston. Both sides have been very disappointing in this format over recent years with England winning only nine of their 26 ODIs from the start of the 2023 Cricket World Cup onwards and culminating in being dumped out of the 2025 ICC Champions Trophy at the group stage after losing all three games. With the poor form above, it was no surprise to see Jos Buttler relinquish the captaincy and he will return to the ranks for this game, following his return from the Indian Premier League, with Harry Brook now in charge of the side. For West Indies, Shai Hope has been their leader for a couple of years in this format but the overall standard of the side has been disappointing. He will hope the iconic Edgbaston can provide the backdrop to a resurgence in ODI cricket for his side. TEAMS PREVIEW England Preview Harry Brook does have experience of leading England previously after stepping up and captaining during the series against Australia last autumn but this will be the first time that he takes on the role for good! With injuries to Mark Wood, Gus Atkinson and Reece Topley, the pace bowling attack is likely to consist of Brydon Carse, Saqib Mahmood and left-arm quick Luke Wood who returns to international cricket. There is another return to the top level for left-arm spinner Tom Hartley who is a more than handy all-rounder and has dismissed some of the world’s best players of spin. With the bat, England need to find consistency, and as ever, the quad of Ben Ducket, Joe Root, captain Brook and Jos Buttler will be key! England Predicted Playing XI: Ben Duckett, Tom Banton, Joe Root, Harry Brook (c), Jos Buttler, Jamie Smith (wk), Tom Hartley, Brydon Carse, Saqib Mahmood, Adil Rashid, Luke Wood West Indies Preview With the suspension and resumption of the Indian Premier League, West Indies will begin this series without the services of two key players in Sherfane Rutherford and Romario Shepherd who have both opted to remain in India for the playoffs. This presents keeper-batter-opener and captain Shai Hope with problems for both his bowling attack and his brittle batting line-up with both Rutherford and Shepherd capable finishers who often make a poor scorecard look respectable with lusty blows at the end of an innings! Without the pair, the experience of Hope, Evin Lewis, Brandon King and Roston Chase will be key if West Indies are to either chase down or post an imposing target against England. Bowling wise, the left-arm spin of Gudakesh Motie could well cause England’s batters problems with the pair of Jayden Seales and Alzarri Joseph both capable of running through a top order on their day. Weather Conditions Overcast skies are forecast throughout Thursday in Birmingham with the swing bowlers on both sides likely to enjoy the overheads! The temperature will be in the high teens but we do not expect any rain during the match. ENG vs WI Pitch Report When the ball gets off the square at Edgbaston it often never stops and batters love to play their shots at this venue. Expect a par score to be over 350 in the first innings of the game. Toss: To Bowl The conditions look set to be calm and consistent throughout the match in Birmingham but there could be some rain in late morning and ahead of the toss. Therefore, bowling first looks likely to be the smart move!

Gujarat Titans vs Mumbai Indians, IPLT20, Today Match Prediction

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : Gujarat Titans vs Mumbai Indians 𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : May 30,Friday𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 19:30 PM IST𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Maharaja Yadavindra Singh Cricket Stadium, Chandigarh, India 𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : Indian Premier League, 2025 Gujarat Titans kicked off the season in style but have stumbled towards the end, suffering heavy defeats in two games back-to-back. Gujarat Titans vs Mumbai Indians TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. GT vs MI Match Prediction & Analysis The IPL 2025 playoffs are here, and Gujarat Titans are all set to face Mumbai Indians in Mullanpur this Friday in the Eliminator. It’s do-or-die territory—whoever loses is out of the tournament. The winner, on the other hand, moves on to Qualifier 2 to take on the loser of Qualifier 1. Both sides have had ups and downs this season, but they’ve also shown they can beat anyone when things click. Expect a fierce contest in this Eliminator that could easily go down to the wire. TEAMS PREVIEW Gujarat Titans Preview After a strong run through most of the season, where Gujarat Titans kept a tight grip on the top two spots, their momentum took a hit in the closing stretch. They suffered two lopsided losses — an 83-run hammering at the hands of Chennai Super Kings and a 33-run defeat to Lucknow Super Giants. Those setbacks dropped them to third in the standings, meaning they now have to go through the Eliminator. One more bad game, and their campaign ends there. Outside of those two off days, Gujarat have been one of the more dependable sides in IPL 2025. They’ve generally struck the right balance in most departments. Their top order — Sai Sudharsan, Shubman Gill, and Jos Buttler — has done most of the heavy lifting, each going past the 500-run mark this season. But with Buttler unavailable for the playoffs due to international duty, Gujarat have lost a major piece of their lineup. Kusal Mendis from Sri Lanka is expected to step in. He may not be as explosive as Buttler, but he’s someone who can steady the middle overs if needed. Lower down, Sherfane Rutherford has quietly delivered value, scoring 267 runs in 10 innings at a strike rate of 157. Shahrukh Khan, too, has shown that he can dig the team out if the top order fails. The bowling attack has been mostly steady this season, though the last two games have exposed a few issues. Even so, the team will be counting on Mohammed Siraj and Prasidh Krishna, who have combined for 38 wickets, to get early inroads. Sai Kishore has chipped in with 17 wickets, even if his economy is on the higher side at 9 per over. Rashid Khan hasn’t had the kind of season GT would’ve hoped for, and that inconsistency could become a problem again. Washington Sundar might be brought in to replace Arshad Khan, who has struggled badly with the ball and been far too expensive. Mumbai Indians Preview Mumbai Indians were within touching distance of a top-two finish after stringing together seven wins in eight games. But a 7-wicket defeat to Punjab Kings in their final league match kept them to fourth. Still, that’s quite the turnaround for MI, considering they dropped three of their first four games. The five-time champions are back in the playoffs and, as always, know how to handle the pressure when it counts. As they head into the knockouts, though, they’ll have to do without Ryan Rickelton and Will Jacks. Both are heading back for international duties, and that’s a big blow to their top order. The duo played a big role in giving MI strong starts. In their place, Jonny Bairstow and Charith Asalanka have been brought in. Bairstow knows the league well and if he can click with Rohit Sharma early on, MI could be in business. Jacks missing out also means a likely shift for Tilak Varma, who’s expected to move up to number three—his natural slot. He’s spent most of the season down at five, where he hasn’t really looked settled. A move back up could help him find his rhythm. One area where Mumbai have come alive is the middle-order. Suryakumar Yadav’s been a rampaging force—640 runs from 14 matches at an average north of 70 and a strike rate around 170. His last two innings—57 off 29 and an unbeaten 73 from 43—suggest he’ll be a real threat to Gujarat in the Eliminator. Lower down, Hardik Pandya and Naman Dhir have chipped in at crucial moments. Weather Conditions Mullanpur, like many pitches across India, offers a good setup for T20s. Batters who take a few deliveries to settle in can cash in later. There’s something in it for the bowlers too—seamers might get early movement with the new ball, and spinners should find some grip through the middle overs. The weather in Chandigarh is expected to be hot and dry. But with no rain on the radar, a full match is on the cards. GT vs MI Pitch Report Teams batting first at Mullanpur in the IPL tend to average around 170. Earlier this season, Punjab Kings put up the highest total at the ground—219 for 6—against Chennai Super Kings, a game they won by 18 runs. The pitch has played well for batters, and that trend should continue. Both sides will likely be aiming for something in the 210 range to feel they’ve given themselves a solid cushion. Toss: To Bat At Mullanpur in IPL 2025, three out of the four games have gone in favor of the side that batted first. Plus, given this is a knockout, choosing to bat first feels like the more reliable option.

Punjab Kings vs Royal Challengers Bengaluru, IPLT20, Today Match Prediction

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : Punjab Kings vs Royal Challengers Bengaluru 𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : May 29,Thursday 𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 19:30 PM IST 𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Maharaja Yadavindra Singh Cricket Stadium, Chandigarh, India 𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : Indian Premier League, 2025 The last time these two sides met in IPL 2025, Royal Challengers Bengaluru registered an emphatic 7-wicket win against Punjab Kings. Punjab Kings vs Royal Challengers Bengaluru TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. PBKS vs RCB Match Prediction & Analysis It’s playoff time in IPL 2025, and the first big clash is set—Punjab Kings (PKBS) take on Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) in Qualifier 1 this Thursday at Mullanpur. Both teams finished at the top of the table in the group stage, and the winner here will head straight to the final on June 3. The losing side won’t be out just yet—they’ll go on to play the Eliminator winner in Qualifier 2 at Ahmedabad, with a second chance to reach the final. The final stretch of IPL 2025 is shaping up to be intense. TEAMS PREVIEW Punjab Kings Preview Punjab Kings have been steady all season, grinding out nine wins from 14 matches to finish on top of the standoings. This is their best run since 2014, the last time they reached the finals. Fans will be hoping they can finally take it all the way this time. Punjab have got the pieces to make that happen, and they’ve used them well throughout the tournament. Their batting unit runs deep, and different players have stepped up when needed. Prabhsimran Singh (499 runs in 14 innings) and Priyansh Arya (424 runs in 14 innings) have been a reliable opening pair, setting the tone early. Punjab will be counting on at least one of them to get going again. Shreyas Iyer has held the middle together with poise, scoring 514 runs from 14 matches at a strike rate of 172. He’s been steady when things get tense and will be central to their plans again. Nehal Wadhera hasn’t put up huge scores, but his quickfire knocks at a strike rate around 153 have made a difference in tight spots. Marcus Stoinis and Josh Inglis have been handy contributors too. Stoinis has been used at the back end to finish things off, while Inglis has slotted in at number three or four, playing with urgency. His 73 off 42 against Mumbai was a standout and showed his ability to turn the momentum of a game quickly. Shashank Singh has also stood up late in matches, keeping calm under pressure and closing out a few tough games. One major setback is the absence of Marco Jansen, who won’t be around for the playoffs due to national commitments. That puts the spotlight on Kyle Jamieson. He’s had issues with conceding too many runs, but now he’ll have to step up and take more control. Yuzvendra Chahal could be back after missing the last two games with a minor injury. His return would bring experience and the ability to break partnerships when it matters most. If Chahal gets into rhythm alongside Arshdeep and Harpreet Brar, Punjab will have a real chance to punch through in Qualifier 1. Royal Challengers Bengaluru Preview RCB have looked terrific all season and wrapped up their group stage with a statement win—chasing down 228 against Lucknow Super Giants, the third-biggest chase ever pulled off in the IPL. That win helped them secure a top-two finish, which will now give them two shots to reach the final. Their batting and bowling units have both held up well. Virat Kohli has done the heavy lifting with the bat, scoring 602 runs in 14 innings at an average of 60.20 and a strike rate of 148. He’s notched up eight fifties, including one in the last game, and continues to look dependable. Phil Salt hasn’t stacked up huge scores, but he gets off the blocks fast and usually gives the innings early momentum. Skipper Rajat Patidar, dealing with fitness issues in recent games, has still managed 271 runs in 12 innings at a strike rate of 140.41, contributing in key moments. RCB have also had fresh faces step up, with Mayank Agarawal and Jitesh Sharma turning heads recently. Mayank has chipped in with some quickfire cameos to keep things ticking in the middle-order, while Jitesh came through big time in the last match against LSG, hammering 85* off 33 balls to seal that mammoth chase. Down the order, they’ll be leaning on Romario Shepherd and Tim David for power late in the innings. David, expected to return for the playoffs after a short injury layoff, could be critical in the final stretch. RCB are also bolstered by the return of Josh Hazlewood, who’s been the most dependable name with the ball this season—snagging 18 wickets in 10 games. Add in the experience of Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Krunal Pandya, and there’s depth in the attack. The concern will be around Yash Dayal and Suyash Sharma, who’ve been on the receiving end too often and may be vulnerable under pressure. Weather Conditions The surface at Mullanpur is well-suited for T20 cricket. Batters who get their eye in early should be able to put up a good score. Seamers could get some early swing with the new ball, while spinners might find the pitch helpful once the powerplay is done. Chandigarh’s forecast points to a dry, hot day with zero threat of rain. That means we’re in for a complete game. PBKS vs RCB Pitch Report The average score batting first at Mullanpur in the IPL is 170. Punjab Kings hold the top score at this venue so far—219 for 6 against Chennai Super Kings earlier in the season. The surface has generally offered a lot to batters, so another high-scoring match is likely. Both teams will be eyeing 210 as a total that gives them breathing room. Toss: To Bat Three of the four matches played at…

Middlesex vs Sussex, T20BLAST, Today Match Prediction

Vann Hiso4 weeks ago4 weeks ago07 mins

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 :Middlesex vs Sussex𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : May 29,Thursday𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 22:45 PM IST𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Lord’s Cricket Ground, United Kingdom, United Kingdom 𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : 1st T20 2025 Sussex have had the upper hand against Middlesex in recent T20 Blast matchups, taking four wins from their last five clashes. Middlesex vs Sussex TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. MID vs SUS Match Prediction & Analysis The T20 Blast returns with a brand-new season and promises plenty of action-packed cricket. The South Group begins with Middlesex taking on Sussex at the iconic Lord’s on opening day. Middlesex had a terrible campaign last year and will be desperate to turn things around. Sussex, on the other hand, had a strong showing in the previous edition, making it to the semifinals, and will be aiming to go one step further this time. TEAMS PREVIEW Middlesex Preview Middlesex had a miserable run last season, finishing second-last in the South Group with just three wins out of 14. They’ve got ground to cover and questions to answer as the new season begins. Middlesex have lost Martin Andersson, who topped their run charts last season, to Derbyshire. But they’ve landed a major name in Kane Williamson—one of the most respected batters of this generation. Williamson’s T20 numbers are impressive: 6675 runs in 250 innings at an average of 32 and a strike rate of 122.45, adding serious weight to their middle-order. He’ll line up alongside Leus du Plooy, Max Holden, and Jack Davies. Davies finished as Middlesex’s second-highest scorer in the previous Blast, piling up 214 runs in 11 innings at a strike rate of 128. Holden wasn’t far behind, scoring 188 in 10 games while going at 161. Stevie Eskinazi is expected to captain the side again, and there’s a lot riding on his performances at the top. Ryan Higgins could also play a big role—he chipped in with 166 runs from 12 matches last season and picked up 9 wickets. Sussex Preview Sussex put together an impressive campaign last year, taking second place in the South Group with nine wins from 14. They edged past Lancashire in the quarter-final but fell short in the semi-final against Gloucestershire, who went on to lift the trophy. This year, the squad looks nearly unchanged, so another solid campaign looks likely. Daniel Hughes will once again be the main man with the bat. He led the batting charts last year in the T20 Blast, with 596 runs in 16 innings, averaging close to 40 and striking at 168. James Coles, Harrison Ward, and Tom Alsop were all consistent contributors too, each finishing the season with over 330 runs. Together, they round out a dependable top and middle-order. With the ball, Sussex will look to Tymal Mills and James Coles for early wickets. Mills took 24 last season, while Coles picked up 20, making them the most productive bowlers in the squad. Ollie Robinson and Brad Currie are the other two expected to keep things steady through the middle and late overs. Weather Conditions Lord’s offers a true surface with consistent bounce and carry. Pacers get movement early, but spinners can control the middle overs if they vary pace smartly. Boundaries are longer square, shorter straight, so angles matter. It’s not a batting paradise, but totals of 160–180 are competitive if bowlers hit the right lengths. Expect a fair contest. The weather in London will be mostly cloudy with chances of a shower or two in the afternoon, which could affect the start of the game. MID vs SUS Pitch Report The average score batting first at Lord’s is 171. The highest total posted here in the T20 Blast is Essex’s 237-6 in the 2023 edition. Both teams will be eyeing a score of around 180 to feel confident about their chances. Toss: To Bowl Out of the 44 domestic T20 matches held at Lord’s, 25 have gone in favor of the team batting first. However, with cloud cover expected, both sides may choose to bowl first, hoping to grab a few early wickets while conditions still offer some help.

USA vs OMA Match Prediction & Analysis The United States of America (USA) will square off against Oman in Match 73 of the ICC Men’s Cricket World Cup League 2 on Tuesday, May 27th. The match is slated to be played at Central Broward Regional Park Stadium, Lauderhill, with a scheduled start time of 7:30 PM IST. The USA are coming off an 88-run victory over Canada in their last match, marking their second win on this tour. Oman, on the other hand, secured an 18-run win (DLS method) over Canada in their last outing in a rain-affected game. They have now won their third consecutive match on this tour and remain the only undefeated team. Current Standings: The USA currently sit atop the points table with 26 points from 19 matches, having secured 13 wins, 6 losses, and 2 no-results. Oman, conversely, currently stand in 3rd place with 24 points from 19 matches, having won 11, lost 6, and had two matches end in no-results. Head-to-Head Record: The USA and Oman have squared off in 9 ODI matches to date. Oman has had the upper hand with 7 wins, while the USA has managed to win two. Of Oman’s 7 victories, three were achieved batting first, three batting second, and one in a Super Over. The USA’s two wins both came while batting first. TEAMS PREVIEW United States of America Preview After losing their second match of this tour against Oman in a Super Over, where they failed to defend 14 runs, the United States of America (USA) bounced back in dominating fashion with a commanding 88-run win over Canada in their last outing. This also marked their second consecutive win against Canada on this tour. Batting first, the USA managed to score 286/9. Their top-order batters, Monank Patel (31 runs) and Andries Gous (29 runs), provided a good start, but middle-order batters Saiteja Mukkamalla (9 runs) and Milind Kumar (7 runs) failed to build a partnership. However, Shayan Jahangir (89 runs off 69 balls) and Sanjay Krishnamurthi (61 runs off 62 balls) added 139 runs for the sixth wicket, propelling the USA close to the 250-run mark, and Jasdeep Singh, with his handy knock of 16 runs, powered them past 280. Saurabh Netravalkar, who had two quiet games, stepped up and picked up a four-wicket haul, finishing with figures of 4/33. Harmeet Singh also picked up a three-wicket haul, finishing with figures of 3/40, and Jasdeep Singh took two wickets as the USA bowled out Canada for 198 runs in 46.1 overs to clinch the win. Oman Preview Oman have been the most dominating and consistent team on their tour to the USA, remaining undefeated so far with two wins over Canada and an emphatic victory over the USA in a Super Over, where they chased down 14 runs courtesy of heroics from their captain, Jatinder Singh. In their last match against Canada, Oman got the better of their opponents, with rain playing spoilsport during Oman’s run-chase when their score was 108/3 in 23.1 overs, well ahead of the DLS par score by 18 runs. Earlier in the match, bowling first, Oman bowled out Canada for 212 runs in 48.4 overs. It was a collective bowling effort led by Shakeel Ahmed, who finished with figures of 2/21 in 9 overs, including two maiden overs. Mujibur Ali and Mohammad Nadeem also picked up two wickets each. Chasing the target, Oman started strongly, with openers Jatinder Singh (27 runs) and Aamir Kaleem (10 runs) adding 39 runs in 8 overs for the first wicket. However, both openers were back in the hut swiftly, reducing Oman to 39/2. Mujibur Ali (23 runs) and Hammad Mirza (33 runs) then added 50 runs for the third wicket, bailing Oman out of trouble. Oman is the only team to have taken 29 wickets in this series, led by Shakeel Ahmed, who has picked up 7 wickets in 3 matches, alongside Samay Shrivastava, who has also claimed 7 wickets. In the batting department, Jatinder Singh has scored 131 runs, while Hammad Mirza (115 runs) and Mohammad Nadeem (116 runs) have stepped up significantly in the middle order. Weather Conditions The weather at Central Broward Regional Park Stadium, Lauderhill, on Tuesday, May 27th, looks challenging for cricket. Expect temperatures around 32°C with scattered thunderstorms and frequent rain delays throughout the match. Overcast conditions will prevail, accompanied by a 13 km/hr wind, 68% humidity, and a 40% chance of precipitation. USA vs OMA Pitch Report The pitch at Central Broward Regional Park Stadium, Lauderhill, offers a balanced track that favors both batters and bowlers. The surfaces have been dry in the last three matches, where spinners have done most of the damage in the middle overs. As the match progresses, batting and run-scoring have become more challenging. The average first innings score in the last five ODI matches played at Lauderhill is 268. Expect another dry surface and a low-scoring game, especially given the overcast conditions. Toss: To Bat Teams batting first won all the last five ODI matches played at Central Broward Regional Park Stadium, Lauderhill. The pitch tends to slow down as the match progresses making it hard for teams chasing to score runs. We predict the team that wins the toss will opt to bat first.

LSG vs RCB Match Prediction & Analysis It is the last league game in the Indian Premier League 2025. Lucknow Super Giants will be up against the Royal Challengers Bengaluru, where the two teams will have different goals. The Lucknow Super Giants defeated the Gujarat Titans in their last game and shall look to end the season on a high. RCB lost to the Sunrisers Hyderabad, and the team will look to recover and build momentum ahead of the next round. The Royal Challengers Bengaluru have done well this season. The side has won the last four out of five games, and their batsmen are in excellent form. The side will look to leverage its strengths in this game and win. The Lucknow Super Giants haven’t been in good form, and despite their win in the last game, the team has struggled with consistency. It remains to be seen if the Super Giants can surprise the Royal Challengers. TEAMS PREVIEW Lucknow Super Giants Preview Rishab Pant’s team showed what it is capable of in the last game against the Gujarat Titans. In a game where the side executed its plans perfectly, they won by 33 runs. However, the team struck form too late and is out of contention for the playoffs. It is their last game this season, and Pant and his men would like to sign off with a big win. Mitchell Marsh hit a match-winning hundred in the last game, and the team expects him to deliver a good start along with Aiden Markram. Nicholas Pooran is an aggressive player and must build partnerships with Pant and Ayush Badoni in the middle order. The team expects a strong show in the lower middle order from Abdul Samad, Himmat Singh, and Shahbaz Ahmed. The bowling attack has struggled in most games. Akash Deep and Akash Maharaj Singh must get early breakthroughs as the Royal Challengers have a strong batting lineup. William O’Rourke and Avesh Khan will look to keep the scoring in check in the middle overs. The team will expect a strong show in the supporting role from Shahbaz Ahmed and Badoni. Royal Challengers Bengaluru Preview Rajat Patidar’s team experimented a bit in their last game against the Sunrisers Hyderabad and paid the price. The side allowed SRH to put up a big total and then lost the game from a position of strength. They are already in the playoffs, and Patidar would like to use the last game to build momentum and finish Top 2 on the points table to enjoy the extra cushion in the playoffs. Virat Kohli and Philip Salt have been in phenomenal form at the top, and the team expects the pair to deliver an electrifying start. Mayank Agarwal must steer the innings in the middle order and add runs with Rajat Patidar and Jitesh Sharma. The team expects Romario Shepherd, Tim David, and Krunal Pandya to deliver the goods in the lower middle order after failing in the last game. The bowling attack struggled in the last game, and the team expects early wickets from Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Yash Dayal to put the team in a strong position. The team expects a good show from Lungi Ngidi and Suyash Sharma in the middle overs. Krunal Pandya and Romario Shepherd must use their experience in the supporting role, as LSG has a strong batting lineup. Weather Conditions We expect warm and dry weather in Lucknow. We expect a flat surface where the ball would come to the bat nicely, allowing batters to play their strokes easily. The ball will turn sharply on this track. The average first innings total is 167 runs, and the team batting first will need 200 on the board. LSG vs RCB Pitch Report Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium, Lucknow, is a good ground for batsmen who are selective with stroke-making. The ball stops on the batsmen occasionally, and the spinners have done well at this venue. The straight boundaries are long, so batsmen must time their shots well at this venue. Toss: To Bowl The side chasing the score in this venue won the last four out of five games. We have seen big scores, and the excellent wicket makes it a good surface to chase. The side that wins the toss in this game will look to use the early conditions and opt to bowl first.

England Women vs West Indies Women, ENG-W vs WI-W 2025, Today Match Prediction

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : England Women vs West Indies Women 𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : May 26,Monday 𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 19:00 PM IST 𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : County Ground, New Road, Northern Ireland, United Kingdom 𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : 3rd T20 2025 England Women target a clean sweep in the third WT20I against West Indies at Chelmsford. England Women vs West Indies Women TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. ENGW vs WIW Match Prediction & Analysis This has been a one-sided series so far with England Women winning by eight wickets in Canterbury and by nine wickets in Hove! West Indies Women showed some fight in the opening game but were then easily beaten by England Women again on Thursday evening which saw the hosts complete the series win at the earliest opportunity. In front of a lively Bank-Holiday crowd in Chelmsford on Monday, we can expect England Women to be well supported and West Indies Women to also be well backed by their fans. England Women began this series looking to make a strong start under their new management team and keen to banish the memories of the WT20 World Cup defeat from last October. Both things which they have achieved. TEAMS PREVIEW England Women Preview After such a dominating performance from England Women in the opening game of the series, there was very little surprise from any of the watching crowd or media on Thursday evening when the hosts announced an unchanged XI at the toss in Hove. The stars with the ball for England were the opening pair of Lauren Bell and Em Arlott who both took three wicket hauls and are likely to be just as effective in Chelmsford on Monday. With Sophie Ecclestone still absent from the series, Charlie Dean took 2/12 in the second game and she will give the ball a good spin in this game also. With the bat, there was a golden duck for Danni Wyatt-Hodge in Hove but skipper Nat Sciver-Brunt overcame her duck from the opening match with 55 not out from 30 balls. England look very strong across both their batting and bowling departments. West Indies Women Preview After losing the first WT20I by such a margin, it was no surprise to see West Indies Women make two changes for the second match of the series, but those new personnel were unable to make much of an impact. The option remains to make changes once again but we expect both Shemaine Campbelle and Stafanie Taylor to retain their places after coming into the XI in Hove. As is often the case with West Indies Women, if the skipper Hayley Matthews has an off-day then they team struggles to be competitive and that was the case in the second WT20I. Matthews, Karishma Ramharack and Stafanie Taylor are likely to be West Indies Women”s key players for this game. Weather Conditions There could be some light rain during the morning in Chelmsford but the afternoon is forecast to be dry. Expect cloudy conditions with the temperature up at 18 degrees. ENGW vs WIW Pitch Report The surface in Chelmsford is often lively for the pacers and offers turn for the spinners. But with short boundaries, expect runs a plenty as well with a par score up at 160. Toss: To Bowl The record books show us that bowling first typically leads to the most success for teams in Chelmsford so we predict that both skippers will choose to field first.

Punjab Kings vs Mumbai Indians, IPLT20, Today Match Prediction

𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐂𝐇 : Punjab Kings vs Mumbai Indians 𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 : May 26,Monday 𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 : 19:30 PM IST 𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐔𝐄 : Sawai Mansingh Stadium, Jaipur, India 𝐓𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐍𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓 : Indian Premier League, 2025 Punjab will look to Priyansh Arya and Prabhsimran Singh to kick things off once more—the pair have been in excellent touch, and the way they begin could decide how this one unfolds. Punjab Kings vs Mumbai Indians TV channels: The fans can watch the match live on Hotstar Live Streaming: Live streaming of the match will be available on the FAFA191 Cricket Exchange India and website. PBKS vs MI Match Prediction & Analysis We’re into the final stretch of IPL 2025. The top four are locked, but the top two spots are still being fought over — and those positions matter since they give teams two cracks at making the final. That’s what keeps matches like Monday’s Punjab Kings (PBKS) vs. Mumbai Indians (MI) clash in Jaipur worth watching. Punjab have 17 points from 13 games and are currently second, while Mumbai sit fourth with 16 from 13. Whoever wins this one puts themselves in a strong position to secure a top two finish, depending on how the other matches play out. RECENT PERFORMANCE TEAMS PREVIEW Punjab Kings Preview Punjab Kings have put in consistent work all season to lock in their playoff berth. But their shot at a top-two finish took a dent after a loss to Delhi Capitals. Despite putting up 206-8, their bowlers couldn’t contain the chase, and DC got home with six wickets to spare. Now they’re down to one last shot, and it’s against a Mumbai Indians side riding high on form. Punjab will need all parts of their game clicking together if they’re going to pull it off. Their batting has been firing throughout the season. Prabhsimran Singh (486 runs from 13 innings) and Priyansh Arya (362 in 13) have given them fast starts at the top. If Punjab is to get this done, they’ll need the same kind of energy again. Shreyas Iyer has anchored the middle overs nicely, collecting 488 runs from 13 matches at a strike rate of 172.43. He’s been calm under pressure and just came off a fluent 53 from 34 against DC. Nehal Wadhera hasn’t gone big but has pitched in with quick contributions at around a 153 strike rate, often shifting momentum just when it’s needed. Marcus Stoinis and Josh Inglis have been chipping in too. Stoinis especially has looked dangerous in bursts—like his explosive 44 off 16 in the last game. Shashank Singh is another one to watch. He’s stayed composed in the final overs and pulled off a few turnarounds late in the game. Bowling has let them down in patches, as seen in their last outing. Arshdeep Singh has been reliable, picking up 16 wickets in 13 games at 8.70 per over. Marco Jansen, though, hasn’t had much of an impact recently. Yuzvendra Chahal, who sat out the last game, might return for this one. He brings in the ability to break partnerships. If he clicks with Arshdeep and Harpreet Brar, Punjab can give Mumbai a real fight. Mumbai Indians Preview Mumbai Indians are through to the playoffs, but they’ll need one more win and some luck elsewhere if they’re aiming for a top-two slot. Confidence shouldn’t be an issue—they’ve bagged seven victories in their last eight games. Up top, Ryan Rickelton, Will Jacks, and Rohit Sharma have had their ups and downs but have managed to lay decent foundations more often than not. Where Mumbai have really turned things around is in the middle-order. Suryakumar Yadav is in the kind of form that wins tournaments—583 runs in 13 games, averaging over 70 and striking at over 170. He’s coming off a brilliant 73* from 43 balls and looks primed to go big again. Tilak Varma’s keeping the innings moving, while Hardik Pandya and Naman Dhir have offered good support with some clutch knocks. Pandya’s done a bit with the ball too—13 wickets, although he’s gone for a touch over nine per over. Deepak Chahar has picked up 11 but hasn’t quite nailed the end overs. Trent Boult’s delivered both up front and at the death, and Jasprit Bumrah seems to be getting better with every game since his return—16 wickets from just nine outings, with an economy of 6.39. If those two click late in the innings, Mumbai could be in a strong spot. Mitchell Santner’s recent return to form gives them even more to work with—his 3 for 11 from four overs against Delhi was match-defining and gives the bowling attack even more balance heading into crunch time. Weather Conditions The surface at Sawai Mansingh Stadium offers consistent bounce and carry. Once the initial overs are out of the way, batters will find it easier to play their shots and get into a groove. Spinners might struggle later in the night as dew begins to build. The ground’s small size and setup tend to support aggressive batting and high-scoring games. Jaipur will be hot and dry, and the forecast doesn’t show any rain. The conditions look stable enough for the game to run without delays. PBKS vs MI Pitch Report The average first-innings score at Sawai Mansingh Stadium is 165, but this year’s pitches have been quite batter-friendly. In this match, the team setting the target will aim for something around 210 to give themselves a good shot at defending the total. Toss: To Bowl The previous game at Sawai Mansingh Stadium, where Delhi comfortably chased down a target of 207 versus Punjab with three balls still remaining and six wickets in hand, made it clear that the pitch holds up well from start to finish, making it a ground where chasing makes a lot of sense.
